Not all migraines are the same and are classified as these subtypes:
- Migraine Without Aura.
- Migraine With Aura.
- Migraine Aura Without Headache.
- Vestibular Migraine.
- Basilar Migraine.
- Hemiplegic Migraine.
- Ophthalmoplegic Migraine.
Although there is no definite cause of migraines, they can be triggered from a variety of things such as:
- Food Allergies
- Blood Sugar Dysregulation
- Head Trauma
- Circulatory Dysfunction
Typically if the MRI does not show any structural causes, your MD will prescribe different medications for treatment. If you are still suffering from migraine’s despite taking those medications, it would be best to look into other causes as listed above.
By approaching this condition with the idea that it can be caused by so many different conditions, a custom tailored treatment plan can be used.
Getting a full examination by looking at the neurological, metabolic, and structural systems is key and could be the difference between a lifetime struggle with migraines and being migraine free.
